The Star Knight - 67. Chapter Sixty Seven

Opal still feels a little bit limp when walking, feels like being/dried too hard, dangling like drunk, handsome face is slightly red, shirt is unbuttoned, and a little bit on his body Fever, licking his lips, his expression is very attractive.

Raymond unbuttoned his jacket unnaturally. Seeing that, he seemed to want to push the opal to the wall and make another shot.

On New Year’s Eve, the shopping street in the central square was not yet decorated. The two wore their scarves and ate a snack on the side of the road. They played with the new pool machines bought from the empire by the bosses. A group of mercenaries crowded in front of the pool screen and shouted: —!”

“What a pity!”

“Lost to a rookie!”

Opal laughed loudly, and Raymond took the prize and said: “It’s really a taboo to underestimate the enemy.”

“Come again!” The loser refused to let them go, Opal said: “I won’t play with you anymore.”

Raymond said: “My wife said she won’t play with you, let’s go.”

Laughing on the spot, Opal took the gold voucher and went to exchange for things.

There was still a while before the last night. They were strolling around at the party and found that Lily was holding the wrench, playing with a two-meter-high Pom.

“I really want to raise one too!” Lily pounced on the Bohm.

“I really miss it too!” Opal also rushed forward.

“I want too!” Raymond laughed and rushed forward with him. Bohm turned around and bounced away. The wrench was buying a drink. He was taken aback and hurriedly chased him: “Hey! You want to take me Where will my wife take!”

Bom banged away, Lily jumped down, patted the hair on the clothes, and said, “When did you come back?”

Raymond also went to buy drinks and said, “Three days ago. Ulka took the things away.”

Lily said, “Well, I see, how are they Xun?”

Opal replied: “I guess you are taking care of Sid’s father, what are your plans?”

Lily and Wrench glanced at each other and said, “Shall we go together?”

Wrench hesitated a little, and then said: “I think Wang means that I want me to visit him…including Sid’s father, but I still have something else to do. It seems I can’t get away. I have to go and see The venue of the evening dance party, by the way, help Urka make a dance partner…”

Raymond said: “I will help you convey the greetings.”

Lily said, “If it is convenient, please also help convey Wang’s greetings.”

Raymond said politely: “Yes.”

Opal used gold coupons to buy a lot of things, nutrition and irises, as well as some soft pillows, pom duvet covers, pom caps and other daily necessities, and went to the hospital with Raymond to visit Sid’s father.

“Dangdang!” Opal appeared from the door.

Sid was feeding his father by the hospital bed, Xun put his hands in his pockets and looked out the window in a daze.

Sid smiled and said, “Why are you here?”

Raymond said, “I would like to convey Azeroth’s greetings to you… Is your father better?”

Sid was a little flattered, and said, “He also gave these things? We actually didn’t do anything.”

Opal: “I trouble you not to be too divergent. Is this what we bought?”

Raymond took out a Pom cap and said, “This is for you.”

Sid laughed, put on a furry Pomme cap, and put another one on his father, Raymond and Opal each. Opal felt that the atmosphere in the ward seemed a bit nervous…Xun and Sid were arguing. ?

Sid got up to change his father’s quilt and pillow. Opal held a Pom cap and buttoned it on Xun’s head. Xun immediately became angry and said, “Who is playing with you!”

Opal said: “Good, don’t play.”

Xun and everyone looked like a grudge. Maybe he was angry, Opal would not provoke him. He came back and sat down by the hospital bed. Raymond put his left ankle on his right knee and winked at Opal. Means what happened to that kid?

Opal looked at Sid questioningly, Sid smiled without explaining.

“How is his condition?” Raymond saw Sid’s father watching him.

“I can open my eyes.” Sid said: “But he couldn’t communicate with the outside world. His brain was seriously damaged. The doctor said his current intelligence is like a three-month-old child.”

Raymond nodded slowly, and Opal asked, “Are you going to the dance party? You can use a wheelchair to push your dad to go with you. There will be a lot of people.”

Sid said: “What about Xun, Xun, do you want to go?”

Xun ignored him, took out a cigarette in his mouth, took a bunch of irises, and said, “I’ll go for a walk.”

Opal said: “I’ll accompany you out.” With the Pom cap in his hand, he turned around, out of the ward, and buckled it on Xun’s head.

Xun looked bitter and enmity, smoking a cigarette, and his hair was messy, like an angry pheasant.

Opal said: “What’s the matter?”

Xun said in a huff: “When he came back, he heard his father wake up and stayed with him every step of the way. Am I here to be an escort?”

Opal smiled and said, “Isn’t this a good thing?”

Xun said: “I want to be with him too!”

Opal said: “Say well, don’t do that.”

He breathed out quickly and helplessly, wearing Pom caps crookedly, and the two came out of the hospital. The robot cleared snow along the road, and Opal followed him without asking him where he was going.

“By the way, I and Raymond are married.” Opal said.

“Congratulations, sincerely.” Xun said, “I might not be married to Sid, what about love.”

Opal patted him on the shoulder and said, “It’s not necessary, it’s all trivial.”

Xun said: “Maybe because I don’t have a father, I don’t understand the importance of his father to him.”

Opal thought of what Wrench had said-Xun was the illegitimate son of Azeroth, he didn’t know anything? Why did Azeroth hide it from him?

The mercenary king may not like this son, or it may damage his reputation… But Opal always felt that Azeroth should not be such a talent.

“Where is your father?” Opal said, “I heard people say that your father has passed away. What kind of person is he?”

Xun said indifferently: “He is a very ordinary mercenary, so ordinary can’t be more ordinary…”

Turning quickly into a remote garden outside Long Street, Opal walked into the gate and looked up. It was a cemetery.

There were scattered people in the cemetery, silent in the middle of rows of tombstones.

The sky was gloomy, and the flowers were quickly thrown to the huge monument in the center of the cemetery.

The national emblem of the nation of mercenaries is engraved under the monument, and a line of words is written on the base-to commemorate all the unknown victims.

The snow is fine and dense, intertwined in the sky.

Opal said: “You are better than me, I don’t even know who my father is.”

“That proves that your father might still be alive.” Xun said helplessly.

Opal said: “You know that your father must be dead again? What’s his name?”

Xun said: “Azer, Bin Azer.”

Opal said: “I guess he must have done something vigorous.”

Xun said: “Don’t comfort me. It has been confirmed in the union a long time ago that he is a very ordinary E-rank mercenary, not a hero.”

Opal frowned slightly, and it seemed that Xun really didn’t know that his biological father was Azeroth.

“He is tall and thin,” Xun said, “The skin is a bit white, just like me, but he is sickly white…”

Opal: “Which mercenary group?”

Xun shrugged his shoulders and said: “Streak soldiers, did not join the group, just like many people now… come to Lie Xing to have a meal, some people are lucky, they are blessed by the god of war for everything. They are like wrenches.”

“And some people are like a splash in the ocean, taking on tasks, going out on tasks, encountering danger, and dying. Dead on an alien planet, the body can’t be found, the union cancels the file, and sends out death reports. He is just like that. Bad luck.”

Listening to Xun’s description, Opal seemed to really believe that his father was just an ordinary mercenary. There are people on this planet who have established great military exploits and improved themselves, and more people have died silently. In the end, they didn’t even have a companion to help him build a tombstone.

“Where is your mother?” Opal asked again.

“A accompaniment girl on a small planet.” Xun said: “I accompany the guests who landed in the field, refueling and repairing the spacecraft, have a drink, chat, and occasionally go to bed… I died when I was six, and told I asked me to come to the God of War galaxy to find my father, saying that he was a mercenary, and she still loved him to death, but he never came back to see her.”

Opal said: “It’s a bit like my life experience.”

Xun said: “Oh no, I guess your father is a great hero, you don’t look like…”

Opal: “No, no, my mother is just a miner. But I always think that blood, origin, these things have nothing to do with whether a person can be a hero or not. You see, you are also very good now.”

Xun said, “Well, thank you.”

He looked at the monument, Xun’s eyes were full of regret, and it seemed to be a little bit disdainful. He was also a mercenary. If there were no variables in the future, at least he could be better than his dead father.

“I’m actually a trash.” Xun said, “My father is also a trash.”

“With all due respect, the principle of measuring a mercenary does not lie in his rank, his abilities, and how much property he has.” Azeroth’s voice sounded on the other side of the monument, and Opal and Xun were shocked. .

He turned around the monument, and Opal saluted with Xun and greeted him.

Azeroth responded with his fist and touched them. He raised his head and looked at the top of the towering monument, and said solemnly: “Every one of us is a gravel in the universe. The key is to have a brave, determined and self-reliant person. Heart. Everyone who fights for himself is a hero to Lie Xing.”

Xun nodded, and Azeroth said: “I’m sorry, I didn’t intend to eavesdrop. I hope you don’t mind. I promise I will be tight-lipped.”

Xun said, “It doesn’t matter.”

Opal said: “What are you doing here?”

“Memorialize a friend from a long time ago.” Azeroth breathed out slowly, and said, “The boyhood partner.”

The three of them did not speak. Snow flew quietly in the night sky, and quickly saluted again, saying, “I wish you a long life.”

Azeroth smiled and said, “I wish you a long life.”

Xun and Opal turned and left together.

As night fell, the whole city carnival, the city of war souls lit up the lights all night, and the music sounded. The mercenaries would spend thirty-six hours of the night here, waiting for the first light to come in the sky.

There are crowds of people on the Battle Soul Square, all shops in the city are open all night, colorful lanterns across the sky, and fireworks illuminate the night sky colorfully.

“Happy New Year and a long life!” The mercenaries greeted each other with a smile.

Opal and Raymond played with fireworks for a while, ran across the long street with a smile, and started chasing a group of Pom running around, running out of breath, and stopped outside the drink shop on the corner.

“I’ll get some drinks.” Raymond said.

Opal said: “Go.”

The remote part of the square was quieter, and music came from far away. The two sat on the benches for a while, the bustling street lights turned into colorful apertures, and the music was small and melodious.

Opal stood in the middle of the road, humming a song and making self-conscious dance gestures.

Raymond hugged him from behind and taught him to dance.

“Left foot.” Leimen smiled: “Now out… the right foot. By the way, one, two, three, turn around.”

Opal turned around, squinted, the two of them held hands and turned around in the middle of the road. Opal laughed and thought it was funny.

“What’s the point of dancing this kind of dance?” Opal said helplessly: “Walking around in the middle of the dance floor following the music…wasting time.”

“Some people think it’s very romantic.” Raymond’s smile was handsome and intoxicating: “Don’t you find it interesting now?”

Opal said, “Oh forget it, I don’t understand why people in the upper class like to dance.”

Raymond held Opal’s hand, turned around, turned to the street lamp, shook it gently, and said: “This is a slow-moving, a style of the Republic. I heard that the local dances of Liexing are more unrestrained. More enthusiastic…”

“Huh huh?” Opal raised his head slightly and stared at Raymond’s face. The street lamp was sprinkled on their short hair. Raymond’s hair was very short and energetic, and his eyebrows were covered with a layer of warm light. Opal said:” Is this also inborn?”

Raymond smiled and said: “Yes, I am a social etiquette robot, your teacher did not teach you this? Little Star Knight, you obviously did not finish all the courses.”

Opal thought for a while and said, “He doesn’t seem to like entertainment…but I guess he should be, but he doesn’t want to teach me.”

Raymond lowered his head and whispered: “Because this process is too ambiguous?”

The two of them held their arms around them and pressed their noses under the street light. Opal couldn’t help kissing Raymond’s lips and said, “Well… he shouldn’t want to hug me like this…”

Raymond said: “Fortunately he didn’t, otherwise you will be tempted by you, so I’m very lucky.”

All the street lights of the whole star were turned on, and the snowflakes were flying under the light shining on the whole scorching star, like hundreds of billions of gentle feathers, and the lights on the Battle Soul Square were bright, like daylight.

A traveler wearing a black trench coat and a wide-brimmed round hat slantingly walked to a remote part of the square and asked politely: “Boys, may I tell you how to get to the Baiying Pub.”

“Baiying Tavern!” The drunken mercenary replied: “It was closed long ago! It was closed ten years ago. You haven’t come back for a long time!”

Several mercenaries looked at him from head to toe. The old man carried an axe on his back, his wide-brimmed hat was very low, his face was old, the corners of his mouth were wrinkled, and the white hair came out from under the brim. That appearance has lived for hundreds of years. The demeanor is very good, the figure is also very tall, wearing fingerless gloves.

“Senior! I wish you a long life!” A mercenary raised a glass to him.

“Please have a drink at the bar! Happy New Year!” someone said: “Welcome home!”

The man in the black windbreaker said: “I wish you a long life and a hundred years.”

One person said: “You can go to the back alley of the War Soul Building! There are plenty of places to drink!”

“Thank you.” The black windbreaker said: “No, no, I originally thought of drinking a glass of wine in the Baiying Pub… I didn’t expect Lie Xing to change so much.”

“The better!” The mercenaries laughed.

“Yes.” The man in the black windbreaker said: “There will be a period later.”

He rounded a corner, entered the back alley behind the Battle Soul Building, and quickly climbed up a step. The two guards who were drinking in the door stood up and said, “What…”

The man in the black windbreaker stretched out his left hand, giving a touch of vain, and the two fell at the door.

He walked all the way through the central corridor of the God of War Building, where the guards of the Lie Star Guards were strengthened a lot after the war, and the gates were closed tightly.

“Mercenary, no appointment…” the front desk clerk stood up and said.

The man in the black windbreaker raised his hand imaginarily and said, “Open the door.”

The door opens.

The man in the black windbreaker entered the central platform, pondered for a moment, and pressed a series of pass codes.

“First-level password verification passed.” Electronic channel: “Identity confirmation, central operating technician, please select the floor you go to.”

Electronic voice: “Five hundred floors, Mercenary King Azeroth’s office.”

The black windbreaker stopped on the fifth-hundredth floor and walked through the empty corridor. Sixteen robots sounded an alarm and surrounded them, but they flew to the sides in an instant, broke through the glass door outside the corridor, and fell into the street.

Only Azeroth and a union chairman are in the office.

“The commanders think that your energy charges are too high…” Azeroth stopped talking and heard the movement outside.

The door opened automatically, and the man in the black trench coat stood outside.

The man in the black windbreaker said: “I wish you a long life, Krelaus.”

The flow of time seems to be unusually slow.

Azeroth said: “A loss of a bereaved dog, did one failure make you feel at ease?”

The chairman of the trade union instinctively avoided backwards, and the man just casually raised his hand to plunder, and the chairman lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

Azeroth was still sitting in his swivel chair, and said solemnly: “Cololin, I also wish you a long life, and your life is not long.”

“According to your words.” Coralin said: “Before this, I want to come to seek justice for Anna’s illegitimate son.”

Azeroth’s pupils shrank slightly, and Cololin turned his head over as if listening to something, and said, “The God of War of the Glory Universe, the spiritual pillar of the Fiery Star, the mercenary King Krilaus Ben Azeroth, what is it? Did he dare not recognize his son? Why? The king of mercenaries would leave his country privately and go to an asteroid that is insignificant on the star chart… Anna’s hometown is just a transit point, the real destination of the king It’s another asteroid. He landed in Anna’s hometown and was in a bad mood. After drinking a few glasses of wine, he left an illegitimate child…”

Azeroth stared at Cororin quietly.

Collins: “The bastard is just one part of it. Looking back through all the reasons, guess what I… have discovered? This is really surprising. Why doesn’t Krelaus dare to recognize his son?”

“Because once there is an extra son, the mercenaries will ask, why did the king go to such a remote asteroid? What did he do there… When they found out that the old king Kyle had been engraved on the monument of heroes. The moment Lei didn’t die…”

Azeroth got up and said, “Crazy man, you will die here today.”

Cololin narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: “If I say that besides me, there is another person named Jimmyson who also knows about this…”

Azeroth couldn’t help trembling slightly, and Cololin said again: “I heard your soul falling into the abyss crying.”

Azeroth said: “You always thought you found my weakness…”

Collins said: “You have been shaken, Krilaus. Looking at the relationship that has worked with you, I will give you one last chance to join the Dark Star Alliance and surrender all the things your subordinates have obtained on Lone Star. .”

Azeroth said: “Have your heart, Cololin, I don’t want to hear you talk about your beliefs or ideals anymore. Lie Xing will never be a knife in your hand, and I will decide the victory or defeat upright. This time I will let you. The corpse will remain in Liexing forever.”

Collins: “You are dead, Krilaus, your undefeated belief has been shaken, and you are also old. Fighting will only accelerate your death.”

Azeroth: “You are older than me, Cololin.”

“My aging is only my appearance.” Cololin took off his hat, with his hands behind his back, his feet were slightly divided, and his deep black and blue eyes were sympathetic and helpless: “And your aging is the soul.”

“The Lie Star will never surrender to you.” Azeroth said coldly: “Even if I am old, I will still be able to fight you to the death, Kolorin.”

Cololin raised his hand and pushed forward, and Azeroth shook his hand on the desk, no matter what, he couldn’t press the alarm switch.

“Your belief is no longer a copper wall and iron wall, Krilaus.” Cololin’s voice was hypnotic: “Your destiny is like your son’s, and tragedies are constantly repeating.”

He stretched out his palm to hold it vacantly, and a small box on the desk whirled and flew, falling in the palm of his hand, firmly grasped by him.

“I took Nolan’s relics.” Cololin said: “Next, it’s your life.”

Azeroth’s forehead was full of sweat, his pupils dilated, his whole body trembling in pain, and then he let out an angry roar.

“Cololin–!”
